This document is a U.S. Coast Guard Justification for Other Than Full and Open Competition under FAR 12.102(a), Class Deviation 25-21 Rev. 1 for FAR Part 12.

The Coast Guard is procuring 15 units of rubber coated material (part number ARC57242, NSN 1560-01-HS1-9569) with an optional quantity of 15 additional units for use as spare parts on MH-65 helicopters. The procurement is restricted to a single source—Aero Rubber Co., Inc., located at 8100 West 185th Street, Tinley Park, Illinois 60487 (UEI: D75AAXCAPNY1)—based on the justification that only one source is available due to OEM designation. The spare parts are highly specialized components designed and manufactured by Aero Rubber Co., Inc., which serves as the OEM for the requested part. The Coast Guard determined that procurement from any other source would compromise aircraft safety and crew safety. All delivered materials must include clear, documented traceability to the OEM and a completed Certificate of Conformance certifying compliance with the contract condition in accordance with FAR clause 52.246-15. The document does not specify pricing terms or delivery dates and indicates that fair and reasonable price determination methods will be applied by the contracting officer. The justification was last updated on March 3, 2026.
